70 Photo of the Day March 12 2011 -- Watching Basketball with Wine and Seeta

This photo is a default shot. I really wanted to produce a multiple exposure or overlay shot. But the technology and I did not work together on this event. So I defaulted to one of the single photos.


The shot was taken with my camera on a tripod, set to timer function. But, actually the photo is an accident because Seeta was not supposed to be in it. But, like all cats, or at least the cats that have been a part of our family, she was adamant about remaining where she was. So, we gave up.


The image mimics Fuji Provia 100F film. This is a slide film used by many professional photographers. It is really good for situations like this one, where there are mellow colors that have some red within. But I like the blue tones here as well. Based on what I've seen from photos using this film, this is a pretty good rendition. It was created using AlienSkin Exposure 2.0 as a plug-in with Photoshop CS5.


The wine is a nice bottle of  2008 Malbec from Mendoza in Argentina. 


The cat is an alley cat. But of a great vintage. Her sister was sleeping, not to be roused.
